07 · Regulation and funding: what the EU rules ask of Halaman, and who pays for the response

Version 2, revised 22 September 2026 from the extended second-pass research notes in this repository (research/regulation-compliance.md sections 1-10 and its facts file; research/incentives-funding.md sections 1-12 and its facts file; docs/01-company-profile.md). The notes rest on search-engine snippets; official sites could not be fetched. Every claim below carries its source URL. Confidence is marked where the notes mark it. Anything the notes do not cover is written as "[to verify]", not guessed. Version 1 carried 58 such items; this version closes those the extended notes support and keeps the rest. Dates are as of 22 September 2026.

Özet (TR)

Sahibi için kısa özet (v2, 22 Eylül 2026)

1. Üç yakın tarih. PPWR 12 Ağustos 2026'dan beri yürürlükte: her ambalaj kalemi için Uygunluk Beyanı ve teknik dosya; gıda temaslı ambalajda PFAS sınırları (tek madde 25 ppb, toplam 250 ppb, toplam flor 50 ppm), geçiş süresi yok. 27 Eylül 2026'dan itibaren dengeleme (offset) esaslı "iklim nötr" ifadesi AB'de yasak; Almanya aynı gün UWG değişikliğiyle uyguluyor, üretilmiş stok için istisna yok. EUDR 30 Aralık 2026'da başlıyor; 13 Temmuz 2026 tarihli delege tüzük boş karton ihracatını kapsamda tuttu, yalnızca %100 geri dönüştürülmüş elyaf muaf.
2. En acil iş: web sitesi, blog, etiket ve teklif metinlerindeki "climate neutral / klimaneutral / karbon nötr" ifadelerini bu hafta değiştirin. Fransa'da bu ifade ambalajda 2023'ten beri yıllık ISO 14067 bilançosu gerektiriyor; Türkiye'de Reklam Kurulu 2022'den beri açıklamasız "karbon nötr" ifadesine ceza kesiyor. ClimatePartner etiketi "ClimatePartner-zertifiziert" olarak yenileniyor ve azaltım hedefi istiyor.
3. Halaman CSRD, CSDDD ve LkSG kapsamında değil. 3 Temmuz 2026'da kabul edilen VSME standardı, büyük müşterilerin 1.000 çalışan altı tedarikçiden isteyebileceği bilgiyi yasal olarak sınırlıyor: tek bir VSME raporu hazırlayıp her müşteriye verin. AB Zorla Çalıştırma Tüzüğü 14 Aralık 2027'de tüm ürünler için başlıyor; SMETA denetimi standart kanıt.
4. Türkiye tarafında: Ambalaj Bilgi Sistemi yıllık bildirimi (Mart sonu; ihracat dahil). GEKAP 2026 kâğıt-karton tarifesi 3,30 TL/kg (%49 artış; ihracat ambalajı için ödenmediği ve beyan sıklığı doğrulanacak). 1 Ocak 2026'dan beri ihracat faturası yalnızca e-Fatura, 12 haneli GTİP zorunlu. A.TR MEDOS üzerinden elektronik; Birleşik Krallık'a menşe beyanı yeterli.
5. Sertifikalar: halaman.com kalite sayfası ISO 9001, ISO 12647-2, ISO 14001, FSC, BRCGS (Issue 7 döngüsü; 10 Ağustos 2026'dan itibaren yeni pozisyon bildirimi), Mellow Colour, SMETA, amfori BSCI ve Sıfır Atık belgelerini listeliyor. EcoVadis, ISO 15378 ve PEFC bulunamadı. Sayfadaki indirilebilir "Climate Neutral" sertifikası EmpCo açısından gözden geçirilmeli. Belge ve test maliyetleri Ticaret Bakanlığı "pazara giriş belgesi" desteğiyle yılda 7,24 milyon TL'ye kadar geri alınabilir (Ek-1/B listesi kontrol edilecek).
6. Yapay zekâ için en yüksek getiri: SKU başına ürün ana verisinden DoC, teknik dosya, EUDR beyanı, VSME raporu ve anket cevaplarını üreten belge üreteci; artı EN/TR/DE/FR kurallarını uygulayan bir "iddia denetleyici".
7. Finansman takvimi: TÜBİTAK 1832 Sanayide Yeşil Dönüşüm (KOBİ şartı yok) 12 Ekim 2026; IFB Hamburg Digital Check (GmbH, %50, en fazla 7.500 €) Ekim 2026'ya kadar; KOSGEB Yapay Zekâ Kredisi (0,5-5 milyon TL, %0 faiz) 31 Aralık 2026; TÜBİTAK 1507 (3,5 milyon TL, %75) ve 1501 (proje başına 20 milyon TL hibe tavanı) Ocak 2027; 1711 YZ çağrısı 2027 yazı. Yurt dışı fuar desteği 2026'da fuar başına 738.563 / 1.231.848 / 3.698.274 TL tavanlı. KOSGEB ve TÜBİTAK 1501/1507 için önce KOBİ statüsü (250 çalışan altı; net satış veya bilanço 1 milyar TL altı) 2025 mali tablolarıyla doğrulanmalı.

1. Why this chapter matters

Halaman exports most of its output to France, Italy, the UK, Germany and Slovakia (docs/01-company-profile.md). About 70% of customers ask about certifications (research/CONTEXT.md). From 2026 the EU shifts from asking for certificates to asking for documents per packaging item: a declaration of conformity, a technical file, a deforestation due-diligence reference, and substantiated environmental claims. None of these fall on Halaman directly as a non-EU seller. All of them are pushed upstream by the EU importer, which is either the customer or Halaman Packaging GmbH in Hamburg. The company that can produce these documents quickly, per SKU, in three languages, keeps the nominations. The Turkish carton sector was briefed on PPWR and EUDR by KASAD and SEKAMSAN at the Istanbul Chamber of Industry on 1 July 2026, so customers and competitors know the rules (http://www.kasad.org.tr/kasad-sekamsan-geleneksel-karton-ambalaj-semineri-2026/).

2. What changes for Halaman's EU customers, by date

Reading the table. Two dates are within days or weeks: EmpCo on 27 September 2026 (with the German UWG transposition the same day) and EUDR on 30 December 2026. PPWR is already live; the customer-facing burden today is the DoC, the technical file and PFAS certificates of analysis for food-contact grades, not the 2030 grades. France already polices neutrality claims on packaging and the UK CMA can fine directly. Everything else (harmonised labelling, grades, DPP) is 2028 to 2030 and is a design and data question, not a legal one, for now. The Forced Labour Regulation (14 Dec 2027) makes a social audit the next certificate customers will ask for.

3. Turkish obligations

4. Certifications customers ask for

Public status is taken from halaman.com/printing-house/quality-certifications (owner-run page extraction in research/owner-supplied-page-extraction.md section 4), docs/01-company-profile.md and research/regulation-compliance.md section 10.8. The quality page names: BRC/IoP, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 12647-2, BRCGS certificate, ISO 14001:2015, FSC, Climate Neutral certificate, Mellow Colour, SMETA certificate, Amfori BSCI certificate and Zero Waste certificate. Segment mappings without a source are marked [to verify].

Food-contact note: for food cartons the German BfR Recommendation XXXVI is the de facto EU standard under Regulation (EC) 1935/2004; BfR consulted in April 2026 (deadline 30 Jun 2026) on merging XXXVI/1-3 without new limits (https://www.knoell.com/en/news/germanys-bfr-revises-food-contact-paper-and-board-recommendations-what-to-know-before-the-june ; https://measurlabs.com/blog/testing-of-paper-and-board-fcms-in-the-eu/).

The picture is better than version 1 assumed. Halaman's quality page covers quality, colour, environment, fibre, hygiene, zero waste and two social audits (SMETA, BSCI). The remaining gaps are EcoVadis (asked by cosmetics and luxury groups), ISO 15378 (pharma) and PEFC (sourcing flexibility). Audit dates, SMETA pillars and the Sıfır Atık level are not public and belong in docs/09-discovery-questionnaire.md. All certificate and test costs may be reimbursable under the Ministry of Trade "pazara giriş belgesi" support (section 7.1).

5. Immediate actions (next 30 days)

6. Where AI and automation help

The common thread in sections 2 to 4 is documents generated from the same product and supplier data, in three languages, for many customers. That is a data-model problem first and an AI problem second. Four building blocks follow, in the order they pay back.

6.1 Compliance document generator (driven by the product master)

• Generates per SKU: PPWR Annex VIII DoC, Annex VII technical file, EUDR supplier declaration with DDS reference numbers and the Annex II data fields the importer needs, recyclability pre-assessment, empty-space ratio for e-commerce boxes, UK pEPR RAM data sheet, and a per-order emissions statement in place of the offset label.
• Attaches the EUDR declaration and DoC automatically to each export e-Fatura and packing list; validates the 12-digit GTİP and pre-fills the MEDOS A.TR or the UK statement of origin.
• Pre-screens new designs at quotation: flags soft-touch lamination, hot foil, Scodix polymer foil or spot UV above fibre design-for-recycling thresholds [numeric thresholds to verify] and proposes alternatives before the price is quoted.
• Build-or-buy benchmark from the notes: PPWR Copilot GBP 49 to 499 per month (documentation only); Complydex DoC at EUR 9.90 per packaging type against EUR 5,000 to 20,000 for consultant-made DoCs; EUDR pass-through tools EUR 3,000 to 12,000 per year, enterprise set-ups EUR 5,000 to 90,000. A supplier that only passes on mill DDS references needs the light end.

6.2 Claims checker for marketing and packaging text

• One multilingual rule set: the EmpCo and UWG banned list ("climate neutral", "CO2 neutral certified", "carbon positive", "climate net zero", "climate compensated", "reduced climate impact", "limited CO2 footprint"), generic claims ("eco-friendly", "green") without evidence, the French décret 2022-539 (ISO 14067 balance behind any neutrality wording), the UK CMA Green Claims Code six principles and the Turkish Reklam Kurulu guide.
• Scans web, blog, social, sales decks, quotations and artwork text in EN, TR, DE and FR; proposes compliant replacements tied to evidence in the library (FSC certificate number, solar share of electricity, calculated order footprint, named reduction measure, ClimatePartner-zertifiziert ID).
• Runs on every new artwork and every web edit as a gate, not as a one-off audit.
• Sources: https://c2ccertified.org/articles/empowering-consumers-for-the-green-transition-what-it-means-for-environmental-claims ; https://www.boehmert.de/en/empco-directive/ ; https://www.bvdm-online.de/bvdm/branchenportal/umwelt-nachhaltigkeit/umweltwerbung-unter-empco-und-uwg ; https://entreprendre.service-public.gouv.fr/vosdroits/F38471?lang=en ; https://www.provenance.org/news-insights/dmcc-act-what-do-the-cmas-new-powers-mean-for-green-claims-compliance ; research/regulation-compliance.md section 10.3.

6.3 Questionnaire-answering assistant with an evidence library

• One evidence repository: certificates (ISO 9001, ISO 12647-2, ISO 14001, FSC CoC, BRCGS, SMETA, BSCI, Sıfır Atık), policies (human rights, environment, chemicals, grievance mechanism), permits (ÇED, waste), fire-safety records, working-hours and SGK evidence, calibration and hygiene records, pest control, glass and brittle plastic register, colour-management data, test reports and CoAs, energy and solar data.
• The assistant drafts the VSME report and answers to PPWR, EUDR, LkSG and CSDDD, EcoVadis, Sedex SAQ, BRCGS Issue 7 clause mapping and forced-labour due-diligence questionnaires from that library, cites the evidence file for each answer, and keeps TR, EN and DE versions in sync. A human signs off.
• An audit-calendar agent watches BRCGS unannounced windows, the SMETA 24-month validity, BSCI, FSC and ISO renewals and the EcoVadis 12-month scorecard; tracks CAPA items.
• Sources: research/regulation-compliance.md sections 4.2, 10.4 and 10.8; https://www.integritynext.com/resources/blog/article/ppwr-eu-packaging-and-waste-regulation ("PPWR supplier compliance cannot be managed as a point-in-time questionnaire exercise").

6.4 Turkish declarations and DPP data carriers

• Computes per-order packaging weight by material from MIS job data and generates the annual Ambalaj Bilgi Sistemi upload (placed, imported and exported) and the customer-facing GEKAP data at 3.30 TL/kg for domestic customers.
• For DPP-ready hangtags and header cards (2028 onward): batch-level QR or Datamatrix generation from brand code lists (GS1 Digital Link or brand-specific), imposition for HP Indigo, and verification on the camera inspection unit. Item-level serialisation stays optional under the JRC specification. This is a new revenue line, not only a compliance cost.
• A "grant radar" agent that watches ticaret.gov.tr, kosgeb.gov.tr, tubitak.gov.tr, istka.org.tr, ifbhh.de and foerderdatenbank.de and drafts DYS, PRODİS and KBS applications from a reusable company dossier.
• Sources: research/regulation-compliance.md sections 5, 7.2, 10.5 and 10.7; research/incentives-funding.md section 12.8.

6.5 What data it needs (the product master)

None of these systems is visible publicly (docs/01-company-profile.md section 3). The discovery questionnaire in docs/09 must confirm what the MIS or ERP already holds before any tool is chosen.

7. Public funding for the AI and digital programme

All figures below come from research/incentives-funding.md (sections 1-12, 44 successful searches) and its facts file; official sites were not reachable, so every amount is a snippet figure. The gating question for KOSGEB and TÜBİTAK 1501/1507 is KOBİ status; the Ministry of Trade, TÜBİTAK 1832 and 1711, 9903 and the German lines do not depend on it.

KOBİ definition (in force since the 7 Aug 2025 amendment, medium confidence): fewer than 250 employees (annual work units, apprentices and interns excluded) AND net sales OR balance-sheet total not above 1 bn TL (raised from 500 m TL). Halaman passes the headcount test at about 200 staff. The notes judge that a 200-person export converter with two HP Indigo presses can plausibly exceed 1 bn TL in net sales while the balance-sheet alternative may still qualify; the financial test and the independence rule (no 25% or larger holding by a non-SME) are [to verify] against the 2025 accounts (action 11). Sources: https://www.kosgeb.gov.tr/site/tr/genel/detay/8807/kobi-tanimi-guncellendi ; https://www.verginet.net/dtt/11/Vergi-Sirkuleri-2025-79.aspx ; https://www.muhasebetr.com/yazarlarimiz/harunacikgoz/054/.

7.1 Ministry of Trade export supports (Karar 5973 and 5986) and Eximbank: open to every exporter

Applications go through DYS (Destek Yönetim Sistemi) via the exporter association (İİB/İMMİB paper group or İTKİB, depending on registration [to verify]). "P" is the base support rate set in the Karar; its numeric value was not in any snippet [to verify]. All 2026 ceilings are indexed each calendar year by (TÜFE+Yİ-ÜFE)/2 (https://www.gaib.org.tr/tr/duyurular/2026-destek-ust-limitleri-8476.html).

7.2 R&D and innovation: TÜBİTAK and Eurostars

7.3 KOSGEB: all lines require KOBİ status

7.4 Investment incentives and regional programmes: not KOBİ-dependent

7.5 Germany and Hamburg: for Halaman Packaging GmbH

All German KMU schemes apply the EU SME definition to the linked group (Halaman A.Ş. plus the GmbH): about 200 staff passes the headcount test; group turnover not above EUR 50 m or balance sheet not above EUR 43 m must also hold, which is plausible but unverified [to verify]. Loan products and free advisory services do not depend on it.

7.6 How to sequence the funding

First settle KOBİ status (action 11). Whatever the answer, four lines are open now and do not depend on it: the pazara giriş belgesi reimbursement for every certificate and test in sections 4 and 5, the fair support for the 2027 fair calendar, TÜBİTAK 1832 by 12 Oct 2026 and the IFB Hamburg Digital Check by October 2026. If Halaman is a KOBİ, add the KOSGEB Yapay Zekâ Kredi before 31 Dec 2026 for cloud AI services, a Kapasite Geliştirme project for the MIS and product-master layer, and a 1507 project (3.5 m TL, 75%) or a 1501 project (up to 20 m TL grant) in the January 2027 window. If Halaman is above the 1 bn TL line, the R&D route is 1711 as customer organisation in 2027 and Eurostars in March 2027, and the investment route is a 9903 Yatırım Teşvik Belgesi (any line of 12 m TL or more; 50 m TL for the evaluation-free digital or green programme). The German lines are the GmbH's own: Digital Check now, KfW or Hamburg-Kredit Digital for hardware and software, INQA for the coached rollout.

7.7 Funding calendar (next 12 months)
